Reverend Ron Asheton Jetstream 390 Electric Guitar - Rock Orange - Plek'd

In 2007, the Stooges reunion juggernaut was in full swing, and Ron Asheton was playing a Reverend Jetstream 390 in Rock Orange. In 2008, all of The Stooges gear was stolen along with their truck, in Montreal. The Jetstream disappeared. This summer, we decided to dedicate the Reverend Jetstream 390 in Asheton’s beloved Rock Orange to him as the Reverend Ron Asheton Signature Jetstream 390. We added the trio of lightning bolts – a decal that Asheton was fond of – to the upper horn. The Ron Asheton Jetstream 390 – fat, raw, and bluesy tones with punk attitude.

CUSTOM PICKUPS

We design our own proprietary custom pickups, to achieve the best tonal match with our instruments. Reverend pickups are also specifically designed for each position, for balanced volume and tone when switching.

ROASTED MAPLE NECK

Roasted Maple is heat treated at over 300° F to remove sugars, moisture, and impurities. This maple is lighter, more stable, and has a beautiful caramel color. The result is an exceptional maple neck that will require less seasonal adjustment, and boasts a rich vintage look!

KORINA BODY

Korina (aka White Limba) is a medium-light weight wood, highly prized for consistency and tonal qualities. Often found in boutique and vintage instruments, all Reverends feature Korina bodies. A highly resonant wood, Korina is a key factor to producing our lively, responsive instruments that are rich in harmonics.

BASS CONTOUR

This passive bass roll-off is great for tightening up the low end, or re-voicing the pickups. It can make a humbucker sound like a single-coil, or give a P-90 that classic twang. Variable pickup voicing at your fingertips!
